2013-2014 School Calendar Set

Warwick Board of School Directors officially approved the 2013-2014 Warwick School District Calendar at their regular board meeting, February 19, 2013.

Note: there are several improvements over the 2012-2013 school year’s calendar, based on stakeholder feedback.

One such improvement is the addition of another “Snow Make-up” day, giving Warwick a total of two “Snow Make-up” days within the calendar. These “Snow Make-up” days are scheduled for Friday, February 14, 2014 and Friday, March 7, 2014 (if necessary). For teachers, these two days are regularly scheduled in-service days. If the days become student days, the in-service days move to the end of the calendar following the last school day. If needed, as in the past, additional “Snow Make-up” days would be added to the end of the school calendar, beginning with June 12, 2014.

Another change to the 2013-2104 school calendar is the addition of two “Early Dismissal” days on November 25 and 26, 2013. These two days will count as student days, with students attending school in the morning. Elementary parent teacher conferences will be held those days in the afternoon and evening. In-service will be held those days for secondary teachers in the afternoon. Wednesday, November 27, 2013 is an additional “Holiday”, with No School.

Warwick will continue to have a “Floating In-service Day”, as prescribed by the teachers’ contract, scheduled in 2013-2014 on January 27, 2014. Remember, depending on school closings due to weather events, etc., this day “floats” or moves in order to accommodate an equal number of days in each semester. The 2013-2014 school year is scheduled to begin for students in grades 1-12 on Wednesday, September 4, 2013. The first day for Kindergarteners is scheduled for Friday, September 6, 2013.
